9 days later: ready to go back to the office.

@Mahendra_017 Thanks, I am already fully
recovered!

@lucianadrian Yes, at least first time I've
noticed some mild symptoms.

@guna_lv I am fully recoverd and doing fine
already. So it seems I was lucky!

Putting on the summer clothes! #Trondheim 🇳🇴

@borderless_dev Yes, this went over
quickly!

@the_qa_guy Yes, rain is just rainbow

@ilpeach The problem is that this approach won't
make Lighthouse happy. Ideally you should serve the best resolution / format for
each client, and since they are all different you have thousands of possible
image sizes to prepare. Therefor IMHO this is best solved using an image CDN.

@tbrasington
@ilpeach I have that aproach on a Gatsby Powered
site: the original are in the source code there, but I have a hook that uploads
these images automatically to @contentful, so
the source of truth is the Git repo, and not the headless CMS.

@gazebo_c Ah, what a nice surprise!

@jesslynnrose I love this one:

Love this @NordicTweets campaign that
highlights some of our employees who applied despite being not a perfect match
to what's written in our job listings ...

Want to #worksomewhereawesome? Check our job listings here:
https://www.nordicsemi.com/About-us/Careers

I know it's hard to find a good balance between describing what's needed to be
successfull in the role and not sound too demanding. It's a magical triangle of
reaching all possible candidates, finding the best match and not spending a lot
of time screening candidates.

As a business you have a strong focus on being efficient (optimize for invested
time), that hurts the other two dimensions, though.

@codingupnorth Yes, this is for sure one of
these requirements that limit the number of candidates we can reach. But we do
actually require a degree in Computer Science, or Electrical Engineering for
many of our R&D positions.

I admit, it gets a bit confusing after a while. #E_TOOMANYDEVICES

@datenreisender Geht auch Vipps?

@alex_schl Absolutely smart decision! All the
best for you! 🥳🥂

A colleague asked me if had slept well because I was so "disillusioned" when
talking about the relationship between companies and their employees.

No, it's just an experienced stoic speaking.

Businesses will always optimize for making money, this influences ALL decisions.

Have that in mind when you interact with a company and make sure to understand
what prime directives affect managers and what they in turn optimize for. It's
rarely their goal to make every individual employee happy.

Median happiness is what matters because that affects directly productivity.
This can leave a lot to desire for individual needs that are not shared by the
majority of employees.

For your personal happiness and health this is critical to understand because
it's hard to get what does not benefit the majority of the employees in the
organization.

A nice find from our trip to southern #Norway two weeks ago. I hope to catch a
bit more summer like this soon 😅

@wolframkriesing Yeah, having recently
had to built a react bridge for leaflet myself, this sounds like a big plus.

@wolframkriesing
@nodejs Ah that's nice, however assert is a bit
limited in its use for me so I still would pull in an assertion library.

@aarongarciah
@wolframkriesing I prefer that bu would
write:

const createDates = ({ date, ...hotel }) => ({ ...hotel, dates: [date] })

so it's clearer what the rest is (technically a hotel without a date).

@mirjam_diala Das kannst du gerade echt
nicht brauchen... Wünsche dass es dir bald wieder gut geht!

@wolframkriesing I use exiv2

reckon.

@olafurw

I guess Luxus is relative and depends on the circumstances ;-)

Another applicant withdrew their application today because I am asking for too
much of their free time. I am curious, how much are you willing to invest in an
application process in total? #hiring

Thailand to offer 10-year work visas with 17% income tax:
https://fortune.com/2022/08/05/thailand-ten-year-visa-foreign-workers-remote-work-digital-nomad-phuket/

@jilliancyork Yeah, we are pretty remote so
getting people here for an interview is something we did pre-pandemic. But it's
not very sustainable... And effectively requires more time from the applicant,
easily a multi-day trip to get to Trondheim.

@atyborska93 Yes, in total.

@tangenteroja What will make you think an
employer values your time?

@eldahshan No, it's totally up to them. They
also can decide when to do the tasks, or propose an alternative that is not a
coding test.

Tomorrow I am going to ask all the hiring managers at my company, and I'm pretty
sure there is quite a big delta.
/status/1556660581653954560

@NativeWired For what?

@charlesv Interesting! For me the option to do
the assignment means it can be done async, when it suits the applicant best. For
the tech challenges I give indepth reviews.

@AstridSawatzky
@eldahshan I have two coding challenges, one is
small (implement three functions, where a test suite already gives you immediate
feedback), and one open architecture task (which exists in more complexity in
our codebase).

@AstridSawatzky
@eldahshan I have these texts in the process,
one in the first welcome email, and another at the top of the assignment.

@AstridSawatzky
@eldahshan With one candidate I am now doing a
pure synchronious tech interview, which has this structure:

@RandomSort No, I don't. Because this involves
a lot of bureaucracy to make it in a way that our accounting is happy.

@emsuiko For this candidate when the time they
had estimated themselves to complete the task ran out.

@PanzerDominik Yes, one candidate now has
asked for an alternative. This is what I am doing.

@AstridSawatzky
@eldahshan Oh, this one is also in the
application form:

@james_christie Sorry, that sucks, and
it's not what I am after.

@PatrickHeneise That's hard to beat. I
guess they bank on the spendings of expats then?

@OnurGumusDev But ... it's Dubai :/

@charlesv I think one of the "problems" we have
with coders is that there is a nice way to test for skills through assignments.
I personally would not like to ignore that.

@NativeWired It's hard to say, but I
personally would say that all in all the current process requires can be done
with someone who has the right skills in less than two working days (<16
hours).

@Paysonhall That's some good scales there, I
think. I'd also expect that juniors apply to 10x more jobs than execs. So total
spent over all applications might roughly be equal.

@AstridSawatzky
@eldahshan Thanks, that's important feedback.

@NativeWired Yeah, but Stockholm means much
better access to candidates and less risk of relocating somebody there. So the
probation period is easier to use for that ... figuring out if they are a good
match.

@PanzerDominik I'd say the two main
problems are that I have low volume of candidates and the skills vary widely. In
addition we need to relocate people to Norway which is a very expensive (both
monitary and in time) investment, so I have to make sure that they are a very
good match.

@NoraTSM
@charlesv Yes!

@NoraTSM Ghosting is really not acceptable. If I
discover that the candidat is not a match I will immediately take the time to
let them know.

@NativeWired Yes, I only hire for my team.

@NativeWired Yeah, that's great. In my case
we are the only team that needs cloud engineers, so I also don't get candidates
from other roles at our company.

@j_karatas For a company where you would stay
as long as you prefer?

It's nice to see the big difference @BicepLang
(left) makes compared to ARM (right):

75665 LOC 2644 files
https://twitter.com/marcoarment/status/1556315177624150021

@AWS Yeah, most of it is unused code because AWS SDK
v3 bundles for multiple module loaders, but it's what's installed and becomes
your responsibility.

@BicepLang It's a bit annoying that you need to
have an empty properties in this template so the deploy does not fail with
"Object reference not set to an instance of an object.":

param location string = resourceGroup().location resource serverFarm
'Microsoft.Web/serverfarms@2022-03-01' = { name: 'myApp' location: location sku:
{ name: 'Y1' tier: 'Dynamic' } properties: { } }

@tottinge It's not paid, that's why I call this
"free" time, as in "available".

@agroebbe They disclosed that they've spent at
least 5 hours on the task.

@ahmedchicktay
@tottinge How do you spend these two hours?

@tottinge It feels weird to ask a senior
candidate to implement FizzBuzz ... But I've seen seniors fail at interesting
parts of my challenges...

@Niklas_L Fantastic! Wouldn't be the same
without you!

@ahmedchicktay
@tottinge I have an interview tomorrow where
I'll try something like this (the candidate chose this over a tech challenge).

and the business partner should know that and make arrangements accordingly.

@VoieDev In Norway, in case the employee does not

only if they fail to adapt you can let them go.

I realize that the Russian terror in Ukraine has changed my view on working for

My take is that IoT Core was axed in favor of other projects which deliver more
short-term revenue
(https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/08/google-ceo-calls-for-a-more-focused-and-efficient-google/).
The growth potential for #IoT is huge, however we are still in a pretty early
phase. It's a poor decision, a lot of customers want to run IoT on GCP.

@DuncanConroy
@GoogleCloudTech What does "low
maintenance" mean for you?

@DuncanConroy
@GoogleCloudTech I personally would pick
@AWS, it has been very stable without any major
changes to their IoT offering for the last 5 years. However it means you need to
build a lot yourself (I have e2e examples for asset tracking if you are
interested).

@DuncanConroy
@GoogleCloudTech
@AWS Depending on your needs you might find what
@golioth_iot or
@AVSystemCom provide to get you started very
quickly. I think both are worth checking out!

@DuncanConroy
@GoogleCloudTech Then go for AWS IoT,
it's serverless and integrates beautifully with other event-based services:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/developerguide/iot-rules.html

Uh, @Airbnb, you OK? #testdev

@elboart
@Steampianist Great stuff, but pretty

@petterssonsoftw Depends on your
constraints. MQTT has a lot of great features for IoT devices. But if you want
UDP and less weight, CoAP or LwM2M (which builds on top of CoAp with OSCORE) is
a good choice. It also mimics a more REST oriented approach. I like the pub/sub
model of MQTT better.

@petterssonsoftw AWS, Azure only offer
TCP+MQTT natively for IoT, so it's what you need to consider if you don't want
to rely on third-part solutions, anyway.

@bjartnes Yay, with all the sweet Hvetebakst in
Norway, I really don't get why this type of cake is not popular in Norway!

People who complain about #SheHulk because of "uncanny-valley CGI" really seem
to simply cannot enjoy a good, entertaining show. And, I think the effects are
on par with other Marvel shows, or even movies. After all, how "belivable" is
the the Spiderman CGI?

I always love when teams can maintain a public list of issues where customers
can vote on using a limited amount of points.

Probably the only use for the corn this year: turning it into a labyrinth.

Fighting the heat with some ice-cream!

@chrissbaumann Just the perspective 😅

It's a virtual event and coaching is provided for 1st timers!

Had a fantastic day kayaking on the Fulda today.

Me in turbo mode:

Topping off the day with a home made pizza from the BBQ:

Tomorrow, the 11th @SoCraTes_Conf is
happening and I am excited for so many awesome reasons:

1. My wife is an agile coach and joining for the first time!
2. I bring 6 of my colleagues from Norway, all of them are first timers at this
   conference #SoCraTes2022 >
   

3. Three of my colleagues, like many others can experience the foundation day
   (https://www.socrates-conference.de/foundations) which I think is an
   absolutely fantastic way to introduce new people in a safe space to our
   community, which can seem obscure, secluded and even a bit cultish.

4. Get to experience inspiring people from the testing community to connect with
   our community: after all, we want the same ... enjoy working on good software
   projects
5. Witness how this conference is evolving again and after two years of pause
   will be magical, again.

@msdeibel I don't have any.
@mirjam_diala can you share the sticker
design?

This year @ConfBuddy is present
@SoCraTes_Conf again! If you are looking
for someone who can support you during the conference find a buddy in the
#buddies channel in the Slack. Check the pinned posts! We have 6 buddies right
now! #SoCraTes2022

I'm bringing 6 fantastic colleagues from
@NordicTweets with me. Very excited to
connect 🇳🇴 with the Software Crafter community!

@NordicTweets Yes! It's my favourite, too.
Let's hope for next year!

@Lynoure It's quite nice for the consumer, they
have complete freedom on what they want, how they want it. But this puts a lot
of work on the backend to make the responses snappy. REST is very much
architecture driven, GraphQL is domain driven. Both have advantages.

I'd like to add that an Unconference like
@SoCraTes_Conf is for making new
connections to people and get inspired which topics to look into after the
conference. It's OK to have no conclusion at the end of a session. #SoCraTes2022

This switch worked for 25 years and broke today:

Me and @kamilleblumm are on our first leg
towards #SoCraTes2022!

Bought it around 1998 for my first business: Darkprojects. It has been switching
the internet connectivity for the appartments in the building since then.

@emsuiko
@kamilleblumm YES!

@Tweet_Cassandra Invest some of the time
in researching which part of the idle time can be reduced and at what cost.
Write tests and refactor. Try out a new thing you haven't tried before.

First delay because of train repairs: 20 minutes #ice538

#SoCraTes2022 first test negative!

And this is how #SoCraTes2022 starts: with the World Café!

I'm really excited to hear what everybody came here to learn!

@chrissbaumann
@TanteMara81 Sieht mega aus!

@mortzu Yeah, but it think it's one of the early
consumer switching hubs ...

@breakthesystem I think we have 98% mask
usage indoors! #SoCraTes2022

The amazing @Singsalad is with use again to
facilitate the World Café!

Juke asks us to leave something there to remember!

#SoCraTes2022

Let's go! #SoCraTes2022

It was amazing and too much to share in a Tweet, so let's say that y'all have to
attend @SoCraTes_Conf next year!

@NativeWired I looking forward to you joining
one day, too!

@PanzerDominik
@breakthesystem Every attendee also has
been given 4 COVID self-tests.

Already incrementing the kata counter at #SoCraTes2022, facilitatet by
@malk_zameth and
@mathiasverraes.

Still struggling creatively with the Reverse Roman Numerals kata.

Tested negative for the first day of the #SoCraTes2022 open space.

At #SoCraTes2022 you can have German Pflaumenkuchen for breakfast! 😍

.@SoCraTes_Conf is starting! Let's fill the
agenda! @Singsalad is starting by introducing
the principles of the OpenSpace. #SoCraTes2022

The @NordicTweets crew is prepared to be
inspired @SoCraTes_Conf. If you want to
learn more about the exciting #IoT technology that we make in #Norway 🇳🇴, do not
hesitate to talk to us! We are looking for more colleagues! #SoCraTes2022
#shareandcare

Our job board is full of interesting opportunities:

If you are curious, do not hesitate to grab me for a chat!

Curious to learn more about working
@NordicTweets, give this a view:
https://youtu.be/ojSBYzKbCvY

The queue of attendees presenting their session is MASSIVE! You can tell we have
been waiting for another @SoCraTes_Conf for
three years. #SoCraTes2022

Oh wow, look at what @quilaztlia has prepared
for us! #SoCraTes2022

What is this #arrrgile T-Shirt and where can I get it?!
@duesenklipper, I think
@NativeWired would love to know as well!
#SoCraTes2022

Well, my agenda just became full, so I'm not going to propose a session.
#awesomeproblems #SoCraTes2022

The #SoCraTes2022 agenda is packed!

First session: we are helping Anne-Christine to debug a cloud-based
architecture, and we are doing it in the perfect room! #SoCraTes2022

@spfeiffr Room Dortmund

Now in @cvollrath's session where her compares
Spring Boot & Kotlin with Node.js and TypeScript (?). #SoCraTes2022

@MaritvanDijk77
@pati_gallardo

Summary SpringBoot/Kotlin: #SoCraTes2022

Hi-Res pictures from left to right of day one of the #SoCraTes2022 open-space:

Summary Node.js / TypeScript: #SoCraTes2022

Final Countdown: SpringBoot/Kotlin vs Node.js/TypeScript #SoCraTes2022

No, there is no @NordicTweets swag placed in
the restrooms! #SoCraTes2022

Session 3 at #SoCraTes2022 is us trying to figure out what's really wrong with
monorepos.

@kriscorbus
@witchofthetest Yes! I'll give them to you
later.

I think we found a few good arguments against them! But to be fair, there are
few issues caused specifically by monorepos. I'd say it makes it hard to limit
scope during development and tracking which changes affect which components (for
CI/CD). #SoCraTes2022

In session 4 we are collecting our favourite frontend frameworks because
Anne-Christine has the opportunity to start a new project. #SoCraTes2022

In the last session for today we've set up a TypeScript project with Jest and
ESlint from scratch with @rubstrauber in 45
minutes. This took 5 minutes with Deno 😍 #SoCraTes2022

Stretching the legs in the Heide. #SoCraTes2022

#SoCraTes2022

@sebs303
@rubstrauber I'll compare it later, we had
0.200 s test execution with @swc/jest

#SoCraTes2022 evening activities: we are learning
@rustlang while next door people are having a
blast with PowerPoint Karaoke.

There were vegan sausages as well!

Only at #SoCraTes2022: @Wolfcraft_IO taking
portrait shots of attendees:

Second day test is also negative: #SoCraTes2022

The Marketplace for the second day of #SoCraTes2022 starts:

The flow of topics is still going strong: #SoCraTes2022

@sebs303
@rubstrauber assert(promise).not.toThrow() is
quite nice

We are trying to improve hiring for everyone else together with
@ZebLarsson and
@the_startup_cto. #SoCraTes2022

Here is the session plan for day two of the #SoCraTes2022 OpenSpace.

@SteBjoerne You'd be surprised how many fail
at seemingly simple tasks.

In the second session with @msdeibel of the day
we talk about architecture diagrams: #SoCraTes2022

More people joined, right now explaining the http://c4model.com:

http://Arc42.org was mentioned which provides a more complete overview:

@SteBjoerne There are topics that I find not
many to be proficient in, that are needed for the seniority and role that I am
hiring for, like for example testing.

@SteBjoerne I'm happy to look at code bases,
or do live coding, of course that shows this.

There is vegan Apfelstrudel at #SoCraTes2022

.@fnbk01 explains Flow Design #SoCraTes2022

We are figuring out why the hell you would want a microfrontend. #SoCraTes2022

No one showed up to show me how to test serverless apps on
@Azure :/ #SoCraTes2022

Now in @rinkkasatiainen's session on
functional programming with #TypeScript. #SoCraTes2022

@PanzerDominik TBH I didn't get this
approach, IMHO it focuses too much on the implementation, too early on and it
does not specify acceptance criteria.

Source code for his talk: https://github.com/rinkkasatiainen/learning-fp

@BenjaminHugot Yes, that would be nice.
I'll try to find you!

Closing the space with the awesome @Singsalad.
#SoCraTes2022

Quick #SoCraTes2022 feedback spider chart from my group:

@sebs303 @Azure
@BenjaminHugot offered and we'll have it
after all!

Picture time! #SoCraTes2022

Really cool from Benjamin to sit down with me, and he actually had a great tip!
My biggest problem ist Azure AD B2C not being automatically deployable, and the
tip was to share it between multiple instances of my project (which is deployed
for testing). #SoCraTes2022
https://twitter.com/BenjaminHugot/status/1563540788189233154

@PanzerDominik Had a chat with
@fnbk01 and I think it's mostly due to the fact
that I prefer a BDD based style for agreeing on changes which combines a User
Story and an acceptance test.

Going through some pictures with
@Wolfcraft_IO: #SoCraTes2022

@jacek_smolak Maybe
@MicrosoftDE should sponsor
@SoCraTes_Conf next year?!

Learning about Two Rooms with a Boom: #SoCraTes2022

#SoCraTes2022 workshop day: the COVID-19 test is still negative

Started the workshop day early with
@mathiasverraes' introduction to Event
Storming: #SoCraTes2022

Day 4 of #SoCraTes2022 is workshop day!

@gazebo_c
@SoCraTes_Conf It was great that you could
attend!

@emsuiko You are right, those comments were
really not mindful.

@AnnNat
@SoCraTes_Conf It was so 😍 to see you
again!

.@DB_Bahn really bad UX in the DB Locator: the
stop where I need to change the train has been cancelled, the app nevertheless
shows me to change there, which is now impossible.

Leaving #SoCraTes2022 with our minds full of ideas and hearts full of great
memories. Thanks to everyone who made that happen!

@Soisco It was a privilege getting to know you! 👐🏻

Let's see if we fit in this train ...

We are in Hamburg and having a post-#SoCraTes2022 team dinner.

@balajisriniv
@SoCraTes_Conf That's great, you should
bring them next year!

... and BIG drinks 😍

@ste5eu Half a litre very good Mai Tai! 😁

@Soisco Love the combination!

Day 5 (post) #SoCraTes2022: still negative.

Oh, that doesn't look good. The touchpad of my new XPS 13 started to stol
working while constantly producing the click haptics. Clicks no longer register
in the OS. @DellCares. (Sound on)

Hamburg breakfast.

Doing tourist things today!

Having a great time seeing beautiful Hamburg with
@NordicTweets colleagues.

@foofighter75 Would love to, but I'm showing
Hamburg to colleagues from Norway and we are leaving in the afternoon already...
😔

Michl-Selfie and some panos:

Here is how I make Twitter much more useful: lists.

I have a private list, where I add the accounts to, that I want to actively see
in my timeline. I pin this timeline, this will make it appear in the Twitter
client on mobile as a second tab. I only use that timeline.

@BestDanMan
@Soisco You cannot buy them, they are awarded.

@KatrinRabow Hm, I use TweetDeck AND the
Android mobile app, and I have not noticed that ...

@mortzu Prost!

Back home in #Trondheim 🇳🇴 with 10°C and rain.

The only way to go back to work after #SoCraTes2022 is to know, that tomorrow
#SoCraTes2023 is one day closer.

Second day after leaving #SoCraTes2022 and my COVID-19 test is still negative.

@jocrossick I think you would be a perfect
fit! Note also that there is a @SoCraTes_UK
coming up!

@nicolefv
@DeveloperXM Sounds much more like you!

One thing I found suprising to learn in my session on #hiring at #SoCraTes2022
is that many are not aware that a hiring manger is not allowed to share feedback
because this can create an opening for a lawsuit. That's why you are mostly
getting no or generic rejections.

I wonder if companies should make this more clear early in the process, and if
it will have a negative impact on the number of applicants.

@mirjam_diala It's OK to share feedback
especially when it's about specific tasks. For example I do give very detailed
feedback on tech challenges.

This is more about what's possible to share in a rejection letter.

@ShawnMcCool Can't request what's not stored.

@HadrienMP Yeah, actually I prefer this over
not being able to sleep.

Another reason why hiring sucks and we need a better way to get rid of the sucky
process we have now and become better in referral and full-team hiring.
